Latent & Emergent Dangers in Post-Hilbert Curve v. 1.0 Militarization of Government Policy


World oil supply is an important element of global economic policies. The Hilbert curve anticipating peak oil production acting with oil prices and supply and demand have substantially effect recent geopolitical structures. The development of fracking to a certain extent has blown up thee Hilbert curve and set a substantial future of reliance on oil as a primary fuel of global economic engines and taxation. Because of America’s historical reliance on that previously scarce commodity oil corporations have been an overly influential power in the U.S. political system. In Alaska for instance, Proposition 1 will decide of Sarah Palin’s progressive tax on oil corporations should be restored or if hefty tax cuts for big oil should remain.

Oil corporations and the military-industrial complex comprise a significant portion of the U.S. national economy. Because of the desire of that sector to take the Presidency in order to implement it’s favorite policies with sometimes costly to the taxpayer consequences it is worth considering what might happen if another oil exec sits in the White House or equally as bad, if the a Clinton legacy continues to warp the Democrat Party.

If an oily President is elected in 2016 it would not be as if a field grade military officer were elected to the Senate House or Presidency where civilians prefer to control the military rather than vice verse, instead an oily President would need to create policies favorable to oil corporate profits nationally and internationally and that would not be as simple as it might have been before the fracking of the Hilbert curve.

If national oil supply is regarded as an abstract value X and that of every nation on Earth designated X1,X2,X3… then it is notable that the quantity of oil of all 180 Xs each of which might be regarded as  variable Q1, Q2,Q3… Those values are changed significantly by fracking recovery of existing fields in relation to the political-economic policies as well as oil facts for each nation X.

An oily President traditionally needs to ascertain the Q for each X and determine what corporate interests are regarding supply and demand in relation to oil corporate profits. Oil corporation Supply (S) is contingent upon political relationship to each X and in some cases cartels of Xs. Sometimes war occurs to change X regimes in relation to its Q and protocol with corporate S.

The complexity arising because of fracking effects on Q and S make political relations more complex too. It is entirely possible for an American President to mistake the effects of a war to change the leadership of an X upon S, or the need to do so. Q may change at any time, yet as with diamonds too much supply drives down the value and profit. It is possible that wars to restrict supply may arise in the future as well as support for rebel movements that revolt against a national X leader too willing to increase Q and compete with S.

Neither oily President nor military industrialists seeking political leadership for the opportunity to increase or defend foreign Q for S will find stable, stationary targets to interact with. The variables of the X series will alter significantly and the values for Q locally and globally will change too. The change in global oil Supply-GS1 to plentiful the next 30 years will retard development of alternate, non-greenhouse gas emitting energy sources and change the existing paradigm for resource wars over oil supply and development. One hopes the U.S. electorate is able to persevere in an alternate energy development policy course free of the irrational influence of corporate oil.

National economic interests ought to be pursued independently of Q so that oil supply in the supply demand curve is set more by phenomenal X policies and taxation rather than on either GS1 or S rather than vice versa. When oily Presidential leadership confers political empowerment upon corporate oil to determine S and its value paradoxically the political stability and supply-demand curve might tend to serve to wreak creative destruction upon other potential rivals to power and energy domestically and internationally.
